See you all back here on the 12th January for our brand new code word to kick off 2013.

I loved Brigit's card from the moment I set eyes on it from the beautiful textured card to the soft delicate colours . I couldn't believe this was a stamp more like a watercolouring painting and loved how she carried the green through to her base card. The tiniest amount of glitter and the lovely layering really enhanced this beautiful image for me CAS perfection

Congratulations, Brigit! You card is amazing! Please take your badge from the tab at the top of the page and as you are the winner of the $20 voucher from Inspired by Stamping, please email me at kyliepurtell@gmail.com so I can get your details!!

JOANNA MUNSTER FROM INSPIRED BY STAMPING

Here is a little about Joanna -

Hi my name is Joanna Munster, owner/designer/illustrator of Inspired by Stamping. I started crafting 11 years ago when I started capturing my daughter’s special moments with scrapbooking. I quickly fell in love with all things crafty including cross stitch, crocheting, knitting, drawing, jewelry making but my love has always been towards the paper craft industry. It is a place where I can lose myself in creating for hours.

Two years ago, my hubby, myself and our three children moved from the United States to Australia. While waiting for my working visa, I started drawing and paper crafting full time with my blog. One of my dear friends suggested that I make a stamp set with one of my drawings and this is where Inspired by Stamping started. I love every moment of working in this industry from the beautiful women and men that I meet daily, to the amazing designs that I see with an Inspired by Stamping set. October 15th 2012, we celebrate our first year of Inspired by Stamping and it is exciting to say that we are growing and expanding! :)

Joanna is offering this prize to the winner of this challenge -

Holy Cow, if I was making money doing this, I would have earned my keep this last fortnight lol!

You ladies are just AMAZING! How was I supposed to choose my favourites from all those astonishingly inspiring entries. Wow...

This took me quite a while. I went back and looked through all the entries and started making notes. I must admit, it was fun. It wasn't a chore going through the entries because they were just so good. It was a pleasure seeing them and you have all provided each other with inspiration that can't be bought.

I would like to shout out to my DT. Aren't they the best?? If you haven't looked at their blogs and what they have been creating, do yourself a favour and check them out. They are an amazing lot of gals.

Kim, I loved everything about your card. I particularly love that Memory box die and the background papers you used. I know you didn't like the sentiment due to a grammatical error, but it didn't detract from your amazing card. Congratulations, Kim on being my CAS Perfectionist and the winner of the $20 voucher from the wonderful Joanna at Inspired by Stamping. Please email at kyliepurtell@gmail.com so I can give you details on your prize xx

I have also chosen a Facebook Show{CAS}e so head over there to see if it is you!!!

Now, don't forget to check back a little later because I will also be announcing the winner of the blog candy!!
